 UKIYO-E JAPANESE WOODBLOCK FRAMED ART PRINT "Plum Garden at Kamata" (Kamata no Baien 蒲田の梅園) by Hiroshige Utagawa, from the "One Hundred Famous Views Of Edo" series, 1857. The image is a skillful gradation of hues, descending from the pink colours of the sky to the deep greens of grass. At the forefront of the image, boldly placed and cut-off (to add to the almost photographic immediacy of the scene) is a traveller's palanquin. The traveller has casually flung their outer garment on the top and seemingly has left to wander around the gardens among other revellers, admiring the flowers or, perhaps, drinking sake and contemplating the calligraphy on the stone pillars here and there... As always, Hiroshige's masterful composition invites the viewer into the scene, the eye wandering from one detail to another, until you find yourself deep in the gardens as well, wandering among the early blossoms ♡ ★ Reproduced from an archive image, respectfully and lovingly restored and enhanced digitally, to remove the non-artistic blemishes and colour fading. ★ Available as FRAMED or FRAMED + MOUNTED A3 print (29.7cm x 42cm) Overall A3 frame size: 45cm x 32cm x 1.5cm (17.7"x 12.7" x 0.5").
